    has anyone ever done this before, I wrote down 4 questions from AUD that I really want to know what these people are thinking, and what their justification is for putting this question or response on the exam.

    How on earth did you write down 4 questions and take them out of the exam with you? That's definitely not allowed. Not really sure how you got away with this????

    edit: Just realized you might be talking about the results? I've only taken 1 test and haven't gotten the results back yet so I don't know how that works.

    FAR: 81 (1/20) AUD: 88 (2/27) REG: 91 (4/19) BEC: 75 (5/20)

    Yeah, if you took those out of the exam with you thats a big no no. You aren't supposed to take anything in there with you and then you are supposed to return the paper that they give you. Also, they could be pretest questions which don't count regardless if you got them right or wrong. If you wrote those down in the testing center I would cut your losses and not say a word. But even if you didnt, I seriously doubt complaining about the difficulity of the questions is going to make a difference.

    Are these questions that you just happened to remember and write down after the exam? Just wondering because I walked out of BEC the second time and remembered word for word 11 questions that I wasn't sure about. Not really much help though because it isn't like you can share them anyway!

    i didnt write the questions down, on my scratch paper, i wrote down the testlet # and the question #. Its not that they were hard, either the question did not support the potential answers, or there was not an answer that differentiated itself from the others. I am pretty sure I passed, but I just want to talk to someone about these questions, and understand what is going through their head when they put either the question, or the possible answers. I mean its just ridiculous, I understand they want to throw curve balls and get you thinking, but these 4 questions were just ridiculous. They either were simply unclear, or did not have enough information, or the absolute right answer was not available.

    I once saw on one of the websites that you can write in and provide the testlet and question #, but obviously no one here has saw that.

    I always assume a question that does not make sense is a test question and will be thrown out when scoring my exam. The questions that make up your score on an exam go through a lot of scrutiny before they are actually counted in an exam.

    With that said, you could try to ask about the particular questions you marked down but chances are it is known that something is “wrong” with those questions based on all of the test results from people trying to answer it, and it will be corrected in the future.
